Chinese railway bureau upgrades to IP surveillance

Chinese railway bureau upgrades to IP surveillance
Nanning Railway Bureau (NRB) needs a video surveillance system to manage security related issues in a variation of dark locations. The Police Department (PD) and the Public Security Bureau (PSB) are required to keep track of time data to be able to gather the latest information in a timely manner. It is therefore necessary for each installed video to be managed from a central station.

Mission
Nanning Railway Bureau (NRB) needs a video surveillance system to manage security related issues in a variation of dark locations. The Police Department (PD) and the Public Security Bureau (PSB) are required to keep track of time data to be able to gather the latest information in a timely manner. It is therefore necessary for each installed video to be managed from a central station.

Solution
When upgrading the surveillance system, it is possible for NRB to monitor the inbound and outbound occurrences in real time as well as dark areas such as inside a bus station. Axis network cameras fulfill the Chinese Railway Bureau needs and were chosen for the project. Axis Q1602 network camera features the advanced Lightfinder technology that achieves color in low-light conditions. Axis Q1604 network camera is able to show details of trains coming into and leaving the station, regardless of the light situation as it offers exceptionally good video performance in highly variations of light with its WDR capabilities.

Surveillance system to be centrally managed
NRB uses their video surveillance system to eliminate security blind spots at the station. This requires an integration of resources and increased security functions in every passenger transport station, freight station, stockyard, and freight yard's existing security surveillance system.

Currently, over 72 local police stations have already installed several hundred cameras, distributing the video images over various on-site front-end locations. The PD and the PSB are required to keep track of time data. Consequently, it is absolutely necessary for each regionally installed video surveillance system to be centrally managed. The network center includes functions such as commanding, dispatching, checking, analyzing, deciding, supervision, disposal, naming, and audio.

Main applications of Axis solution
The main applications of the Axis solution is real-time monitoring of the trips of inbound and outbound customers/ cargo vehicles as well as other dark locations. Because of the exceptional low-light imaging quality and extremely low bandwidth of Axis Q1602 and Axis Q1604 the system video imaging has, after the transformation, a good interface with the original simulation system.

The Axis Q1604 clearly shows details of the trains coming into and leaving the station, regardless of the environmental light situation, due to its extremely good video performance. It effectively records the entry and exit times of vehicle trips, thereby effectively achieving the goal of providing security inside the stations.

Axis Q1602 advanced Lightfinder technology achieves color during low-light conditions. The main application of this model is in cargo stations, in situations without good lighting, achieving real-time monitoring of poorly lit corners.

Upgrading the surveillance system
Along with transforming and upgrading NRB's video surveillance systems, the bureau, a total of 72 local police stations, 3 police departments, and one PSB will advance to a complete surveillance system network. All levels will be responsible for their division, equally capable of accessing surveillance images in progress and searching video recordings of their area.

Axis Q1602 network camera has outstanding low-light quality, not only does it solves the low-light condition issues (relative to the low-light quality of other brands) of “seeing” critical problems. In addition, it simultaneously guarantees that the image would still be in color, the first of its kind in the industry. At the same time, by not requiring extra light, in regards to warehouses in cargo stations, stockyards and other places, it both conserves energy and reduces expenses.

After the system construction was completed, not only did it solve the problem of merging the surveillance system and the original simulated surveillance system, it also achieved the unification of the original system, TV wall, and other functions.
